*facepalm*

You do realize how easy it is to edit a logo, right? I could do it to windows right now, just like that person did to the apple logo.

Apple doesn't use that logo, they never have.

Really? How old are you again? Because Apple has it on their own website.

Therefore, in 1977 Jobs asked the art designer Rob Janoff to design the new Apple logo. The new logo had a simple shape of an Apple, bitten into, with the colors of the rainbow in the wrong order. The bite symbolized knowlegde (in the bible the apple was the fruit of the tree of knowledge) and the bite could also be pronounced "byte", a reference to computer technology.
When Jean Louis Gassée was asked about his thoughts to the Apple logo he answered: "One of the deep mysteries to me is our logo, the symbol of lust and knowledge, bitten into, all crossed with the colors of the rainbow in the wrong order. You couldn't dream of a more appropriate logo: lust, knowledge, hope, and anarchy."
In 1997, Steve Jobs decided to drop the multi-colored Apple logo and replace it by a solid-colored logo. The first Apple computers to feature the new logo were the new PowerBook G3s in 1998 (although they still featured both types of logos).

What exactly is Godly about any of that?


But hey, what do us old farts know, I mean it's not like we've been around longer or anything.

Of course people who use MAC Computers are gay. There is even websites for them.

You realize that means nothing, right? PC's still control 80% of the computer marketshare, so therefore most gays use Microsoft Windows OS.

That's like saying using guns is gay because of the organization called Pink Pistols; it makes absolutely no sense. I'll only buy Apple products if I can, because I like buying products where the developers actually care about what they're putting out on the shelves.

Pink pistols? Apple products? I think we know which way you swing.

Wow, really? I just used it as an example to show how stupid it is to make that kind of a comparison.

If that means nothing then why did they make that website? It is no the only website.

If you only buy Apple products because they care what they put on the shelf, it is because you are attracted to the gay marketing. You do realize marketing people target products to certain people. You must be attracted to the gay packaging and promotion of Apple products.

Sorry but I am 100% not gay, I like Apple because they're not built like the shit Microsoft puts out. Like I said, just because gay people use something doesn't mean anyone else who uses them or likes them is gay themselved or damned to hell. Gays use both mac and PCs, you can't argue that. Gays drive cars, they worship God, they do pretty much everything anyone does in modern society. Give me one good reason other than the way it looks or that meaningless website that proves people who use Macs are gay.

The old Apple logo aside, how are Apple computers in any way gay?

Re: Fact: Only flaming homos use Mac.

Gays drive cars

You mean like this?

how are Apple computers in any way gay?

You are aware apples are fruit? You are aware only gays eat fruit? Why are you so obsessed about things gays like to do?

You do realize that Microsoft does not make computers, right? The only time I've ever seen a gay use MS programing was because they were forced to at work.

Thank you for using such advanced logic in this debate. Fruit, an essential dietary nutrient found in many foods other than just fresh fruit itself, couldn't possibly be a heterosexual thing to eat. Just look at fruit. It's so unbelievably gay. It's all colorful and has seeds in it. How gay of someone to eat fruit! Vegetables are really homosexual too. Carrots are orange and that color is on the gay flag. Screw lettuce too, its green and its on the gay flag too.

Apple must be gay because it's named after a fruit, i can see it clearly now.



On the apple vs pc note, i wonder which logo look more gay now?:

Did I say you were gay? No. You are the one implying that I said that you were gay.

Like I said, products are marketed to certain groups of people, including gays. Gays do drive cars, cars designed for gay people. Check out Top Gay Cars 2010
. I just gave you one website which shows MAC users are gay. Here is http://arstechnica.com/apple/news/20...dly-brands.ars.

Quote from website

Apple was considered to be gay-friendly by 23 percent of the general population, 39 percent of the gay/lesbian population, and 54 percent of the PlanetOut "universe." These numbers may seem low, but they're not really—the only brand that scored higher than Apple on all counts was the Bravo Network, with 28 percent, 52 percent, and 67 percent respectively.

Speaking of other brands, Apple shares the title of "most gay-friendly brand" with Bravo, Showtime, HBO, Absolut, and Levi's. It's true that, in many ways, they all tend to project a forward-thinking image and embracing everyone who oozes "fabulous" vibes (and even those who don't). On the flipside, Wal-Mart, Dunkin Donuts, Cracker Barrel, Exxon -Mobil, and Samsung were all stuck at the bottom of the list—this is no huge surprise, as they all come off as somewhat ho-hum companies.

71 percent of the GLBT said that they have a more favorable impression of companies that use gay imagery in their advertising, and 68 percent said that they'd be more likely to buy from a company that they consider to be gay-friendly. Surprise: off-mainstream groups are extremely loyal to companies that make some effort to reach out to them.

You're welcome.

Fruit, an essential dietary nutrient

Nonsense. I am 73 years old, never ate fruit in my life, and my health is excellent!

Screw lettuce

Remind me to never eat at your place.

[BarryFlorta]

Re: Fact: Only flaming homos use Mac.

Are you sure you've never eaten fruit? I can't see how you can go an entire lifetime without fruit and not get scurvy. You might not have ever eaten it in it's purest form but rest assured you've eaten fruit thats been added to other food products.
